Vehicle Overview

ASTON MARTIN DB6 – 1966 Chassis: DB6/2720R Engine: 400/2311 – 4.0 litres Gearbox: Manual Interior: Beige Connolly leather Exterior: Aston Green Metallic This remarkable 1966 Aston Martin DB6, equipped with the highly sought-after manual gearbox, is one of the most authentic and desirable examples of the British grand tourers of the 1960s. The DB6, direct evolution of the iconic DB4 and DB5, features the celebrated Touring Superleggera bodywork with Superleggera construction, an extended wheelbase, a more spacious cabin and the distinctive aerodynamic Kamm tail, designed to enhance stability and efficiency. Its engine is the legendary 4.0-litre inline-six, fed by three SU carburettors, offering smooth yet powerful performance. Combined with the manual transmission, it provides an exceptionally engaging driving experience. DB6 models equipped with a manual gearbox constitute a small minority of total production, making this example particularly rare and sought after.
